WELDING PARAMETER
Attention: Before the welding make a welding test to find out the welding parameters.
Welding temperature:
Adjust the welding temperature using the potentiometer. Do not start with the welding before
the set temperature has been achieved.
Welding speed:
Adjust the welding speed using the potentiometer.
The drive starts automatically when the nozzle is swivelled in.
According to the geomembrane liner or film and climatic influence, adjust the welding speed
using the potentiometer.
Welding pressure:
The self-weight of the machine transfers the welding pressure directly onto the pressure roller.
POSITIONING
Guide roller Overlap/Seam/Edge Tape/Vandalism/Custom tape
The guide roller should run
along the edge of the overlap.
The outer edge of the pressure
roller and the edge of the
overlap must be on top of
each other.
The middle of the pressure roller must stand on the
edge of the overlap.
